What i am searching for, any recommendations on where to find:
- Power steering high pressure line
- Power steering low pressure fittings for pump side
(Found the gearbox side, the one i will buy from @ToyotaMatt )- Brackets for any lines cooling or other
- brackets if needed on PS fluid radiator
- Maybe brackets for power steering heat shield
- Heat shield for power steering.
- other items i should find?
- recommendations on shortening steering column for safety. I have heard this is 30mm shorter.
Regarding the steering column and safety. Do what you need to to make it work. Your talking about a fj40 here so safety? What's that?

Ha, thanks, ya well don’t want to break a column weld mid 50mph highway ! And I realize that’s likely max speed, never had pleasure of driving one yet, Ha
I appreciate that. I've shortened my 4runner. On the 4runner it's only cutting to shorten them.Ha, thanks, ya well don’t want to break a column weld mid 50mph highway ! And I realize that’s likely max speed, never had pleasure of driving one yet, Ha
